Save as Folder option does not change form path and history table path. Need to change manually

Dear Team,

Save as new Folder option does not change form path and history table (copying records from workflow) path to new folder location (folder created using save as option), We need to change manually. (Kindly refer below scenario)

  1. Example: I have created workflow to copy current record to new sheet whenever change the status. after save as new folder destination sheet (new sheet) is still targeting to old path.
  2. I have created dashboard to check request status in which I have given form path to submit the request. while saving as new folder option does not change form path to new created sheet (form path) but still targeting to old sheet path.

How can we fix this.

Thanks and best regards.

    hi @Ibrahim Khaleel ,

    if it goes for dashboard and the data that is calculated in the dashboard widgets creating as new will not automatically connect with the newly created - I think only Control Center does it automatically so if you copy save as new entire folder with data inside the Dashboards if not updated will be taking data from original source.

    same with copy row to another sheet - this workflow is static and it will copy to the original sheet even if you save as new… for both of those issues the only solution would be Control Center or manual work.
